Iddhi

Iddhi (Pali; Sanskrit: ṛddhi) in Buddhism refers to "psychic powers",[1] one of the six[2] supranormal powers (abhijñā) attained by advanced meditation through the four dhyānas.

[3] The main sense of the word seems to be "potency".

[4] According to Bowker, there are eight iddhi powers:[5] According to the Iddhipada-vibhanga Sutta (SN 51.20)[6] In the book Great Disciples of the Buddha by Nyanaponika Thera and Hellmuth Hecker, there are several additional powers described.
